1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

1. Dynamic video imaging was used to measure the des-Arg9-bradykinin-induced changes in the intracellular free calcium ion concentration ([Ca2+]i) of single bovine tracheal smooth muscle (BTSM) cells. 2. In the presence of extracellular calcium ions, des-Arg9-bradykinin (1 nM-10 microM) produced a concentration-dependent increase in the [Ca2+]i over basal levels yielding an EC50 value of 316 nM. The percentage of cells responding to each concentration of des-Arg9-bradykinin also increased in a concentration-dependent manner (from 9% to 100%). 3. The bradykinin B2 receptor antagonist, D-Arg[Hyp3,Thi5,8,D-Phe7]-bradykinin (10 microM), was without effect on the calcium response of the cells when added 2 min prior to des-Arg9-bradykinin (100 nM). However, the B1 receptor antagonist, des-Arg9Leu8-bradykinin (10 microM), completely abolished the des-Arg9-bradykinin-induced response. 4. Under calcium-free conditions, des-Arg9-bradykinin induced an increase in [Ca2+]i at concentrations of 1 microM and 10 microM. The response to 10 microM des-Arg9-bradykinin was reduced by preincubation of either D-Arg[Hyp3, Thi5,8,D-Phe7]-bradykinin (10 microM) or des-Arg9Leu8-bradykinin (10 microM). 5. We conclude that bradykinin B1 receptors are expressed by cultured BTSM cells and mediate the des-Arg9-bradykinin-induced influx of calcium ions at low agonist concentrations (< 1 microM). At higher concentrations, des-Arg9-bradykinin (1 microM and 10 microM) can stimulate both B1 and B2 receptors to effect intracellular calcium release under calcium-free conditions.
